The second cache on the Sea View series, which gives the searcher a lovely view of the Al Fahal island, the “black gold” loading buoys and the discreet fisherman village of Aint.
Approach: Take the Qurum to Muttrah road and follow the Darsait signposts. Take the Darsait road towards the sea, pass the two schools and three speed breakers. Turn right for the village of Aint (signposted). Turn left for the graded road leading to a local promenade. Parking places are abundant. The cache can be approached from different directions, we recommend the easier scrambling up on the southern side of the rock (N 23o37.987'; E 58o32.815'). Good shoes are needed, especially for the descent.
Location: The area offers, aside of nice views, the possibility to explore the village of Aint or the Darsait lagoon. This is the place where a sperm whale got stranded couple of weeks ago.
Cache: The cache is a regular size Tupperware type plastic box containing one pencil, one logbook, a pencil sharpener, a re-sealable pack of refreshing wet wipes ; since this cache theme is sea-related, you will find some sail boats and fishes 3-d mini-puzzles, shark-shaped bottle opener / key-ring. Glow-in-the-dark Smiley stickers are placed in the box as well, rewards for the finders...
